FAITH AND CONFESSION--WHY IT WORKS : You will never solve the problem by dwelling on the problem itself: that is meditating the problem or circumstance. You have to get off the problem and get to the answer. You're supposed to be meditating on the Word ! God's Word keeps the answer before you. Your attitude will change. You will become a different person. But if you see the problem, or circumstance, if you believe the problem on the circumstances, if you talk the problem, then you end up being the problem. "Therefore I say unto you, what things soever you desire, when you pray, believe that you received them, and you shall have the. (Mark 11:24). What things shall you have ? Those things you pray or said. If you are praying or saying the problem, you are going to have the things that you prayed or said. You are not required to pray the problem. "... For your Father knoweth what things you have need of, before you ask him." (Matthew 6:8). In Isaiah God says, "Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified." (Isaiah 43:26) . In other words, call Him to remembrance of what He said. Remind Him of his Word. That doesn't mean God is forgetful. You are not doing it for His benefit. It's for your benefit, because faith cometh by hearing. It is not going to make God's faith strong because He heard it. It makes your faith strong and God's Word will not return to Him void. "But I say unto you that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account of it in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shall be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned." If you pray say the answer, your faith will grow why are you all praying saying. If you pray say the problem, your fears will grow why you are praying saying. Some Christians destroyed their faith by their praying or saying. That is neither the will nor the direction of God. Prayer is not for the destruction of your faith. Pratt is to obtain the answer--- "whatsoever things you desire not decide the problem, so I don't pray the problem, in other words I don't tell God my problems I tell God my answer. I traveled that religious road praying for 15 years of my believing life, and I seldom saw a prayer answered. If I did, it was just a faith accident. Someone stated it this way, and I think it's a good illustration. It's about 239 miles from Houston to Dallas, Texas. If you started out from Houston to Dallas Texas, and drove for three days and didn't get there, you would know you were on the wrong road. But I traveled that religious road of praying for 15 years and never did get to my destination. But when I found in the Scriptures that I was supposed to pray the answer instead of the problem, I got more Pratt has answered in two weeks then I did it in the previous 15 years. This may help you saying 25 years of wasted prayer. Don't pray the problem, stop telling God about your problem or your circumstances get the Word of God and pray your answer. "So shall my Word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." (Isaiah 55:11). Who is going to return God's Word to Him ? He is expecting you to do that. If you return God's Word to Him, it will cause your faith to grow. And he has promised that it will prosper ! It will renew your mind, and it will plant seeds in the kingdom in you ! God is not trying to make it hard on you. That's the business of religion. He's trying to make it easy for you. Remember Christianity is not based on religion, it is based upon a relationship With the Father, The Son and the Holy Ghost.
